I had an afternoon fever
And I flew right to Geneva
Tell me where I'm going - Ive got no way of knowing
I wish I was a Forest Ranger
- Danger Danger- Danger !
I just took me a notion
To fly right across the Ocean
They call me the Midnight Moses
Everything I touch - is coming up Roses

Worst thing is I know that there will be a seat free on the 15:05 flight to liverpool as I know somebody who bought a ticket to use that flight but isn't going to be on it as he landed a job in the UK late last year - and I can't get hold of him! flip!

Looks alright on Google http://images.google.co.uk/images?q=...N&hl=en&tab=wi can you sit somewhere nice overlooking the water for an ale or 2? Or take a boat somewhere (if the lake's not too frozen).
